No reason it should. ARP should be using *broadcast* packets,
which should be picked up by all nodes. Promiscuous mode just means
that the node picks up non-broadcast packets addressed to other
nodes, in addition to the broadcast packets and specific addressed
packets that it should always be picking up.
